i’ve had my peachie pie since she was about 12 weeks old, she’s 1.5 now. i randomly saw her on craigslist for free, she was from an accidental farm litter. they claim her to be aussie/pit mix

i’m 30 & she was my first PUPPY

i figured that since she was around my other 2 dogs (seniors) and 3 kids (6,4,3) she would be socialized 🤪 so i slacked on socializing her for the first 7/8 months

she is a little fear reactive and VERY protective of me

we started out on a 6 foot leash and worked diligently on pulling and recall

NOW we successfully walk roughly 1.5 miles every day on a 30 foot lead and encounter many distractions that she is so close to being a pro at ‘ignoring’

but today!!!!! she pooped on our walk!!!!

she didn’t pee on our walks for a few months so i am just overjoyed that she felt safe enough to let her guard down and go potty

i don’t have anybody to share my excitement with, hopefully this is the correct sub
